Sadrul Ain:
A new student political party is set to officially debut in a few hours today.
However, yesterday evening, the name of the party was announced as the National Citizens Party (NCP).
The much-anticipated new party's name and committee will be announced at a rally on Manik Mia Avenue in the capital on Friday (February 28) afternoon.
On this occasion, the Advisory Council of the Interim Government, political parties supporting the popular uprising, and prominent figures from various classes and professions have been invited.
A few hours before this historic moment of party announcement, Legal Advisor and Professor of Law at Dhaka University, Dr. Asif Nazrul, posted a post on social media Facebook.
He also attached a picture of the invitation letter with the post. He also shared a memoir about the new party member secretary Akhtar Hossain. Asif Nazrul also mentioned the party's convener Nahid Islam.
"I was very upset after the fake elections of 2024. At that time, Akhtar came to the law department one day. He said that I had brought him from home to Dhaka and convinced him to complete his masters. But even then, there was no sign of him leaving the campus."
He stopped my car and greeted me. Then he stood there for a while, shaking. I was annoyed. I was even more annoyed when he said that he would leave the Nur-Rashed party and form a new organization!
I said: New team again! How many more times do you want to be beaten!
He lowered his head and smiled softly. I couldn't find any meaning in this strange smile. Without saying much, I went home. A few days later, seeing his bloody picture after being beaten up by the Chhatra League, my heart was torn with sadness and despair. Doesn't he understand that nothing will happen and he keeps doing this!
I couldn't understand it myself. Within a few months of forming the new organization, they made the impossible possible. They brought down the powerful and ruthless fascist Sheikh Hasina.
Nahid of Akhtar's organization became the main leader of this mass uprising. The leader of me and millions of people like me in Uttal July!
Then I worked with Nahid in the new government. How many times did she amaze me with her competence, eloquence, personality, and unimaginable maturity!
Nahid lives next door to me. I spent a long time looking at his green lawn late at night on the day he resigned from the government. Maya is a strange thing!
Today, Nahid and Akhtar are embarking on a new journey. Their new team's journey has begun to fulfill the expectations of the students and youth of the July Mass Uprising.
Many blessings and good wishes to everyone in the National Citizens Party.
